Teresa was an excellent resource for our 2 week trip to Italy this summer. Her recommendations were spot on and connections to guides very valuable. We might not have tried a food tour (a favorite) without her recommendation. She was very responsive to our many questions, before and during the trip. Would highly recommend her services to others, especially if you'd like help with the logistics.

Teresa was such a pleasure to work with to help plan our vacation to Italy. She helped us plan tours that were perfect for us. Teresa thought of many details that we hadn't thought of, which helped make our trip seamless. We really felt we got the most out of our vacation because of Teresa's help.

We had a fabulous trip to Italy, thanks to Teresa! It’s the little details that lead to great memories and she completely has that covered. No matter what type of trip, she customizes it to fit you. Her suggestions made the trip special and unforgettable. Several times, she found much more reasonable prices than we did. And knowing that she has your back if there is a problem is priceless! Our flight was delayed and we missed the connection to Italy. Teresa was on it right away and called the apartment where we were staying and rearranged everything. Again, priceless!

Teresa planned all the details for our 20th wedding anniversary trip to southern Italy. Our vacation was truly unforgettable and the best trip we have ever taken. We will definitely plan our next trip with Teresa!

Teresa was recommended by my aunt and uncle who visited Italy several times with her help and raved about the tours they went on. I was going with a group of 5 people and it was all our first times visiting Italy, so we needed someone who could help guide us on where to go/what to do/where to eat! We visited Florence, Venice and Rome all within 8 days and Teresa booked all our tours for our group. Each of the tours came with skip the line tickets (so clutch!) and fantastic guided tours. Our tour guide in Venice was so knowledgeable and fun. Our favorite tour was the food and wine tour in Rome, which we would have never known to book without her. Teresa helped with everything from hotels, time management and transportation. I can’t wait to go back and explore the coast and I will be calling up Teresa again!

Teresa was WONDERFUL. She planned a day trip for us to the Amalfi Coast 3 days before we went and it was very last minute as we were already in Italy. She was quick, very helpful, and planned EVERYTHING for us, which made it so easy and nice. Would definitely use her again and hope to return to Italy again soon.

Teresa was instrumental in connecting me, my brother, and my two children (ages 10 and 14) with unforgettable experiences in Rome including a food tour, cooking class, and a walking tour (the latter on a holiday). Our time in Italy was brief and she helped maximize our enjoyment. I highly recommend her travel services and will definitely be calling on her again in the future. She was very organized, professional, and enthusiastic.

Found this gem of a coordinator thru a mutual friend and we couldn’t be happier with our last minute travel between Rome and Florence. Teresa arranged private transfers for us, private tours by locals and a boutique hotel that was perfectly central in Florence and everything we wanted. We couldn’t be happier with Teresa and her travel plans tailored to meet our needs and desires.

We were flying out of Miami on Monday night, 9/11, to Rome on our 10 day planned trip. Well, as life would have it, Irma (storm) rolled into Florida on Sunday, 9/10, hitting Miami with a wallop causing major flooding closing the Miami airport. In the end we rescheduled the flight for Wednesday, 9/13, and left Miami for our beautiful Italian vacation. As you can imagine, this required Teresa to reshuffle the scheduled tours, hotels, etc., and through this entire process Teresa was a joy to work with - that alone reduced a great amount of stress on my part. Considering the circumstances surrounding the start of our journey the trip was a tremendous success. Like someone else mentioned, without her assistance, her knowledge, her guidance concerning restaurants, sites to see, local tours, train stations in Roma an Napoli, we would have missed so much. Grazie mille “My Italian Destination”.

My Italian destination, Teresa, was truly incredible in planning the perfect trip for my boyfriend and I. After my boyfriend took the bar, we had the most incredible, relaxing week in Positano. With the help of Teresa, our hotel was a handful of steps from the beach and we were given an abundance of top notch recommendations from the driver she set us up with. The boat tours she arranged for us were beyond perfect and we created incredible memories in every grotto around Capri and along the Amalfi coast. After a week in Positano, relaxed and sun kissed, we headed to Florence where thanks to Teresa we were in the middle of EVERYTHING. There wasn't anywhere we didn't or couldn't walk to! From there we ended our journey in Rome we were felt like royalty at the hotel she recommended. After eating our faces off in pizza and gelato, all we can do is count down the days until our next trip! I know that when the time comes to book our next trip, Teresa will be the one we call! We are so lucky to have had her in our corner supporting our every step in Italy and showering us with only the greatest of recommendations. She's the best!!!!

Teresa planned an incredible two week trip for us! She spent time getting to know us and our goals for visiting Italy. She personalized every aspect of our trip. She also was easily available when plans changed, like our tour guide having to cancel because of an illness. Teresa is clearly one of the best. We can't wait to plan our next trip with her!

My sister, mother, and I debated for over a year where we should go to celebrate a 40th and 70th birthday. We wanted to do something out of the ordinary for us - a different country, something spectacular, however we felt completely overwhelmed with the planning. I can't begin to express what a special trip Teresa planned for us; from hotel/restaurant recommendations, to the most personable driver who made us feel like family, a cooking class, boat tour around Positano, to guiding us on highlights to see in Rome. We did it in 8 short days that will always be amazing lifetime memories. Teresa took all the stress out of the planning process. Her connections and knowledge are worth every penny. I can't say enough positive things about this service.....Thank you Teresa!!

We just returned from an indescribable family vacation to beautiful Italy! Teresa planned, suggested and organized an amazing trip! She listened to all my ideas, wishes and orchestrated an amazing adventure. It was a large order, 2 parents, 3 kids under the age of 10. She created an amazing, fun trip that kept us all happy and interested! Her organization and attention to detail was extraordinary. She thought and suggested things I hadn't even thought of. Having her plan and help us make this trip happen was such a huge help with our busy schedules! Thanks My Italian Destination!!

I’m so glad I called Teresa to plan our Italian getaway! I was so overwhelmed trying to make arrangements and she took all of the stress off of me and let me enjoy the planning process. We required some very last minute changes to our itinerary and Teresa took care of everything. I would definitely recommend My Italian Destination and will be calling Teresa again for our next trip to Italy!

Teresa made our anniversary trip amazing! Her attention to detail allowed us to have the experience we desired in Italy. From our first interview to our trip home she made sure everything was wonderful! It was an effortless vacation filled with fun, awe inspiring views and opportunities to experience Italy at the pace we wanted. Thank you Teresa!

Highly recommend it. Teresa was so well organized and knowledgeable about the area and she truly cares to make sure everything is well planned. She recommended few tours that I wouldn’t have thought about on my own and my kids absolutely loved it. Couldn’t have done it on our own. Do not think twice about using the services of this company. You would love it.

Teresa is the best! I called her two weeks before my trip to Italy! We were going to two cities and I realized I had nothing planned and was overwhelmed! We chatted and I told her the specs. Active family, two loud boys, nothing thrill-seeking, and we wanted hands on Italian experience. And that’s what we got! I didn’t have to do anything but arrive in Italy and we had the trip of a lifetime!

Teresa was recommended to us by good friends who visited Italy last summer with her help. And I am glad they did. We were planning to visit Rome, Pompeii, Florence and Venice all in 8 days so we needed someone to help us plan to get the most of this quick trip since we were visiting so many places. Teresa was great and booked all of our tours. Every tour she booked for us came with skip the line tickets and excellent private guides. The day we visited the Colosseum the wait time in line was 2 hours! But our guide just walked us right in a back gate with no waiting. Same with our Vatican Tour. It is certainly worth the extra money when time is limited. She also recommended some tours and activities we would have never thought of ourselves that we thoroughly enjoyed. She helped with everything from hotels, to tours to train tickets to time management. We would highly recommend using Teresa to help plan your dream Italy vacation.

I could not have planned this trip without Teresa. Once I learned about her background and expertise in Italian vacations, I was sold. I knew I would not have the time and energy to properly plan our trip to meet our college son who was studying abroad in Florence. Based on our desires, Teresa made many suggestions and booked everything from food tasting tours, tour guides, restaurants, private transportation, an apartment in Florence and the list goes on. We had a blast in Florence, Bologna, visiting Pisa, Lucca, and finally Venice. A bonus was her knowledge of local foods, drinks, and customs which meant we had the best papa al pomodoro in Florence and aparol spritzer in Venice. I have already recommended her to friends!

We had planned a trip to Rome for Spring Break many months ago, but had dropped the ball with planning any tours or experiences. My best friend Angela had read about Teresa and her business planning trips to Italy. We called her on a Sunday afternoon for our trip beginning on TUESDAY, just a couple days away! Teresa did not let us down. I am still amazed she planned so many experiences that the adults and kids in our group enjoyed tremendously. It was not our first trip to Rome, but it felt like it because the tour guides shared so much knowledge with us that it felt brand new. Teresa's help saved us lots of money in the long run and guaranteed the best companies. We will definitely ask for Teresa's services for our future visits to Italy.

I just concluded my trip with My Italian destination and all I can say is INCREDIBLE! My Italy expert planned a trip to southern Italy which included lodging in three towns, a major city, a small town and a beach town. The activities planned took into account my two elementary school age boys so they were always engaged. The tours planned were things I would not have found myself. From the Roman food tour... to the Gladiator Training... to the James Beard restaurant in a city built into a mountain... to Pompeii.. to swimming in the grottos and eating fresh fish caught that morning it all was incredible. Well worth the investment. My family has unforgettable memories thanks to My Italian Destination!

We wanted to take our two sons to Europe to celebrate their graduations. The history, food and warmth of the culture made Italy our first choice. We wanted to experience it, not just visit it. Teresa made this adventure one of the most cherished family memories for us. She listened to what we thought we wanted and provided what we dreamed of. Everyday we felt like we were shown memorable historic sites by a knowledgeable neighbor that truly loved each city, unlimited dining choices and every detail addressed. An amazing way to travel and can't wait to do it again!

Had a wonderful family vacation coordinated by Teresa! She arranged a great plan, combining walking historic tours, golf cart tours, a delicious Roman food tour, among other great visits. A nice pace where we had a blend of city time as well as time to enjoy the Italian countryside. Truly a great experience working with her, highly recommend!

When I first decided to plan a trip to Italy, the process seemed a bit overwhelming. As soon as we contacted My Italian Destination, any anxiety I had disappeared. Teresa was able to provide us with such useful tips and information as we were planning. My Italian Destination knows how to experience Italy! Now that we have returned from our trip, I can tell you that it could not have gone smoother! Every experience was perfect, and it was the most memorable vacation we have ever had. We will be contacting Teresa and My Italian Destination for our next trip to Italy! Thank you!

I utilized My Italian Destination for my first trip to Italy in May 2017. I must say that Teresa could not have been more knowledgeable, resourceful, and just a pleasure to work with! I am writing this review two days after returning from my two-week trip, and it was the most amazing experience: Rome, Florence, Tuscany, Amalfi. A BIG Thank You to MID and Teresa, for your guidance and helping me to set up a trip to Italy which far exceeded my expectations!!
